Help please - Fault with Candy Dishwasher - DFI85S?

I have a Candy dishwasher model DFI 85S. Last night, during the wash programme, water was escaping from the underside of the door. I thought the filter might be blocked so I cleaned it and re-set the programme. Very shortly after the prog. re-started, the machine emitted a muffled bang noise (a bit like an electrical fault?) and stopped.
I manually emptied the water from the machine and cleaned out all the debris and filters. I re-set the programme but nothing has happened (but the indicator lights were working). Having referred to the manual, I note that the machine is fitted with a “water-stop” device. The “window” of the device appears to be red? I’ve un-done the value but can’t work out how to re-set the device. Do you think that this is the cause of the problem or could it be something else or both?
Many thanks for any assistance you can give
